Well, simply because we are based in Grantham! And, if you make these using the right colour of wool they do rather resemble the famous Grantham gingerbread... ;)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the basketweave design has very long history and can be seen on antique buttons, there's no evidence for a tool to create these. This tool, and the technique is entirely unique to us (Gina first published instructions back in 2013). Also, the ribbed variation is entirely new, and adds a new twist to the technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are quick and easy buttons that are very tactile. When stuffed with a washable filling and made with washable fibres, they can go through the washing machine and are great fun on knitted garments.
